Bela Ban commented on JGRP-639:
-------------------------------

This code works in Java *BUT NOT IN JGROUPS* !! Need to find out why UDP.createSockets() fails if I change it to look like the code below.

public class bla {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Throwable {
        MulticastSocket sock;
        SocketAddress saddr=new InetSocketAddress("228.8.8.8", 5000);
        sock=new MulticastSocket(saddr);
        sock.joinGroup(InetAddress.getByName("228.8.8.8"));
    }
}

> This doesn't work on Windows, so try-catch it and create new MulticastSocket with a wildcard bind address.
> (2.4.2 is the equivalent of 2.4.1. SP5) - Bela
